It took me a few pages to get into this, but once I got over the "why the hell are we talking about Mario" and "why the hell is Stuart so chill with him talking about Mario", my heart totally melted. The story was written beautifully, and the words really drew me in. I found myself crying a couple of times. I admit it. My heart really broke for Mario and what his future could have been if he was able to follow his heart. I really ended up loving this. ( ) no reviews | add a review

An In My Heart Novella With his ten-year high school reunion approaching, Harold wonders whether Mario will be as muscular, sexy, and tantalizing as he remembers. As a teenager, it was love at first sight for Harold while tutoring football star Mario, until homophobia and bullying drove Mario deep into the closet. Now they're both married men. Mario, a model, is miserable with his producer wife, while Harold, a teacher, is perfectly content with his businessman husband, Stuart. When the two meet again, will the old flame reignite, setting Harold's comfortable life ablaze? How can Harold be happy with Stuart when he is still infatuated with his Adonis, his first love, Mario? Harold faces this seemingly impossible situation with inimitable wit, tenderness, and humor as he attempts to reconcile the past and the future. A Bittersweet Dreams title:It's an unfortunate truth: love doesn't always conquer all. Regardless of its strength, sometimes fate intervenes, tragedy strikes, or forces conspire against it. These stories of romance do not offer a traditional happy ending, but the strong and enduring love will still touch your heart and maybe move you to tears. No library descriptions found. |
